A healthy, gorgeous smile doesn't happen on its own. Proper care is needed to keep your teeth and gums in the best of health, and that means staying stocked up on oral care essentials. Walgreens can help you easily purchase whatever you need to care for your smile with our vast selection of products.
Brush Your Way
Dentists recommend brushing your teeth at least twice per day to remove plaque that can contribute to tooth decay and gum disease. At Walgreens, we have manual toothbrushes in a range of sizes and bristle styles with something for every member of the family. You can also simplify brushing with an electric toothbrush that runs on rechargeable or replaceable batteries.
Choosing the right toothpaste is also important when putting together an oral care routine. We have a wide range of options for you to choose from in flavors to please your palette and formulations to meet your oral care needs.
Care for Your Gums with Ease
Brushing can remove some plaque from your gum line, but food and germs often linger even if you brush thoroughly. Over time, these impurities can cause inflammation that can progress to gum disease. That's why dentists recommend that you clean your gums at least once per day. You can find a diverse selection of products at Walgreens to care for your gums from conventional dental floss to inter-dental cleaners to battery-powered water flossers.
Bad Breath Solutions
Bad breath or halitosis happens to nearly everyone from time to time. While chronic bad breath could indicate an oral care problem that you should discuss with your doctor, you can address minor occasional halitosis with the right oral care products. Mouthwash and rinses can help promote fresher breath by killing some of the germs that contribute to odors. You can also rely on breath-freshening strips, sprays and gums that are easy to use on the go.
Whiten Your Smile
Over time, foods, drinks and smoking can cause your teeth to become discolored. At-home teeth whitening products are available to help promote a whiter smile. Whitening products work by either scrubbing away stains with abrasive ingredients or lifting them away with hydrogen peroxide or another chemical ingredient. Today, there are toothpastes, mouth rinses, strips and gels with whitening benefits for you to try. Be sure to consult your dentist for advice about which type is best for your smile.
